Introduction • The following comments were received as part of the reason for not confirming MB-OFDM as the TG3a down-selections • No data have been presented on how "nulling" tones or OFDM symbols impacts link performance (especially at the critical rate of 480 Mbps for USB-type applications) • The following simulation results are intended to address this issue specifically. C. Razzell (Philips), C. Cattaneo (STM)
Recap of MB-OFDM Spectrum Flexibility • Ability to comply with worldwide regulations: • Channels and tones can be turned on/off dynamically to comply with changing regulations. • Can arbitrarily shape spectrum in software with a resolution of ~4 MHz. C. Razzell (Philips), C. Cattaneo (STM)

CM1 PER performance @ 480Mbps C. Razzell (Philips), C. Cattaneo (STM)
Summary • Different numbers of adjacent sub-carriers were nulled {1,2,4,8 or 16} • The worst case, as expected was 480Mbps and 16 sub-carriers nulled • However, even with 16 x 4.125=66MHz of spectrum cut away, the required SNR increased by less than 1dB C. Razzell (Philips), C. Cattaneo (STM)
